Our unique capabilities allow our customers to get online faster and offer applications that are more innovative and easier-to-use than their competitors.

Key capabilities that separate TechniCon from other vendors include:

Existing product information; including text, CSV, SIF, PDF and CAD data; can be quickly repurposed and fine-tuned for e-commerce applications using TechniCon's proprietary Legacy-to-Web tools.

In just four days, Steelcase's database of 57,000 configurable products (each with up to one million variations) was converted into Web-ready product data, including raster images and 3D models.

Other vendors allow users to download generic, not-to-scale CAD files from their systems. CustomCommerce dynamically produces dimensionally-accurate 3D CAD models and 2D production drawings using customer-specified options, dimensions and CAD file formats.

To protect a company's intellectual property, a product's internal design content can be removed from its CAD model, leaving only the external geometric envelope.

CustomCommerce eliminates data conversion costs and delays by supporting a wide range of CAD formats. For users of Autodesk Inventor®, the product configurator can programmatically drive Inventor to generate accurate 3D CAD models on-the-fly.

CustomCommerce supports Autodesk's i-drop technology, which allows CAD data to be dragged and dropped directly from Web pages into desktop drawing applications, including AutoCAD, Autodesk Architectural and Inventor.

TechniCon offers a full set of highly flexible product visualization tools. Customers can rotate, tilt and magnify product images, as well as interactively select and display different sizes, colors and other options.

Screen-optimized images are provided with near-instant response. Photorealistic images can be rendered of configured products to highlight features difficult to view in lesser quality images.

CustomCommerce supports a variety of drawing engines, allowing visualization performance to be optimized for a specific application. Custom catalogs generated from the same catalog repository can use different drawing engines as appropriate.

TechniCon has years of experience tracking and maintaining large data sets. TechniCon has developed, maintains and licenses a comprehensive database for the contract furniture market containing Web-ready information on over 400,000 office furniture products from 40 manufacturers.

TechniCon integrates all the required elements for a complete and customized e-commerce solution, including: the transaction processor, template-driven "store fronts," internationalization support and hosting services.

TechniCon can provide turnkey systems that seamlessly integrate with your existing systems and overall Web strategy.
